Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the influence of adding plastic bottle fibers to soil-cement mixtures and the possible improvements generated by the addition of a blend of two types of additives, namely, additive 1 (waterproofing improver) and additive 2 (adhesion enhancer), in the compactability and shear strength parameters of soil-cement-plastic fiber mixtures, considering a tropical residual soil. The fibers used in this study are made of Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET), produced from soft drink bottles, and added to the soil with 2 mm width and 1 cm length, in the content of 1% in relation to soil dry mass. Also, contents of 3% and 5% Portland cement, in relation to soil dry mass and two additives, additive 1 at a ratio of 0.25 kg m-³ dry soil and additive 2 at a ratio of 0.60 kg m-³ dry soil, were used to evaluate the possible effect of these variables on the investigated engineering behavior parameters. The compaction results indicated that the inclusion of PET fibers in soil-cement mixtures tends to decrease the maximum dry unit weight compared to fiber-free mixtures. Also, if compared to soil-cement-fiber mixtures, the incorporation of additives to soil-cement-fiber composites resulted in higher values of maximum dry unit weight and lower values of optimum moisture content, but still maintaining values lower than obtained for compacted soil. Results of the direct shear test showed enhanced shear strength with the addition of fibers to soil-cement, for both the parameter of cohesion and the internal friction angle of the material in comparison to fiber-free composites, which demonstrates the potential application of these composites in geotechnical works.
塑料瓶纤维加筋水泥土力学性能研究
本研究旨在评估在土-水混合料中添加塑料瓶纤维的影响,以及在考虑热带残余土的情况下,添加两种添加剂(即添加剂1(防水改进剂)和添加剂2(附着力增强剂)对土-水-塑料纤维混合料的压实性和抗剪强度参数可能产生的改善。本研究使用的纤维由软饮料瓶生产的聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯(PET)制成,并添加到宽度为2mm,长度为1cm的土壤中,含量为土壤干质量的1%。此外,3%和5%波特兰水泥的含量,相对于土壤干质量和两种添加剂,添加剂1的比例为0.25 kg m-³干土和添加剂2的比例为0.60 kg m-³干土,以评估这些变量可能对所研究的工程行为参数的影响。压实结果表明,与不含纤维的土-水泥土混合料相比,掺入PET纤维有降低最大干重的趋势。此外,如果与土-水泥-纤维混合物相比,添加添加剂的土-水泥-纤维复合材料导致最大干单位重值更高,最佳含水量值更低,但仍然保持低于压实土的值。直剪试验结果表明,与不含纤维的复合材料相比,加入纤维的水泥土的抗剪强度和材料的内摩擦角参数均有所提高,这表明了这些复合材料在岩土工程中的潜在应用前景。
